Pros

Laid-back, yet still professional and skilled environment. Very different from other "typical" law firms and their culture. Great pay and benefits. Generous paid-time-off.

Cons

Medical benefits are good, but they're very expensive. Staff management is really out for the convenience and benefit of attorneys and higher-ups, as opposed to the actual staff, leaving staff feeling unsupported and without a true voice.

Pros

Free lunch and snack bar

Cons

Some offices have awful open layouts and cubicle like associate seating. I also experienced a lot of turnover and instability under the new CEO.
